Be Thankful and a color challenge

I must say that the year is zipping by and it is already
almost Thanksgiving!This is the
inspiration for our challenge at Retro Rubber for the next two weeks.Be thankful! And use the photo for your color
inspiration.

I recently purchased a fun die from Cottage Cutz that is the
Cornecopia.That was the start for my
card, but then came the Retro Rubber inspiration to use a really old Fiskars burlap
roller from about 1998, plus Unity Stamp Company’s. . . today I am Thankful set from October
2014.

Die cut white cardstock with Cornucopia from Cottage
Cutz.Identify each tiny piece and shade
to Pastels chalk.This was the quickest
and easiest way to color and shade the tiny pieces.

Step Four:

Assemble the card by adhering burlap stamped background to
A7 size Kraft card base.Adhere the
Cornucopia pieces together with repositionable Xyron adhesive.I ended up moving them around before I was
totally satisfied!Apply permanent adhesive
to the completed composition and adhere to the card from.Adhere sentiment with dimensional foam
adhesive.

About Me

Hectic as my life is . . . I have a desire to decompress by creating in my craft cave! Currently we have 34 residents on our mini-farm, which includes four humans. Our two active athletic boys keep us running to their various activities. I work for our business doing accounting and HR paperwork, as a substitute teacher in local High Schools, and now as a Community College Chemistry Instructor. Despite the busyness of life, my scrapping, altered art, and card making all provide a respite of creative energy and renewal.
